Teo years of deadly virus and the popular Off the Grid has return to Pleasant Hill Wednesday Night. I been attending this Wednesday Night extravaganza since 2014 and it gets better. Hot or cold there are people that are coming to the park. Off the Grid has taken measure to make sure people who are not vaccinated are still wearing the mask. Instead of chairs in the park they now provide tables. Easy for Off the Grid to setup and take down. Pleasant Hill is the home for Off the Grid on Wednesday Night. Second biggest market to Fort Mason Friday Night. read more

My favorite Off the Grid in CoCo county! Yes, it's true... lil P-hill really knows how to throw a true Off the Grid Par-tay! The Pleasant Hill Off the Grid is one of the larger markets in the area and usually houses about 7-10 rotating food trucks. I love that they actually provide an adequate amount of lawn chairs that they are available for anyone to sit and lounge in. They also have three portable restrooms with hand sanitizer stations in them AND a little station where you can actually wash your hands! This Off the Grid is held right behind Michael's off of Gregory Lane, and there is always parking available. They usually have a beer garden available with beer and wine that's supplied by a local brewery or pub in the area. I also really enjoy their live music! This market is usually held every Wednesday year around from 5p-9p. During the summer it can get quite busy, but I've never had to wait a ridiculous amount of time in line. What I really enjoy most about this Off the Grid are the variety of great food trucks that they have! The food trucks are usually rotating but they tend to always have a nice spread of trucks that have different types of cuisines. They also usually have around 10 or so trucks whereas the Concord location usually only had about 5-7. Some of my absolute favorite food trucks frequent this Off the Grid! I'm utterly obsessed with Cousin's Maine Lobster truck. I literally had to ween myself off the truck for a while because I was coming almost every Wednesday to get their addicting lobster roll! Another favorite truck of mine is IzzyA's frozen custard truck. If and when this truck is present... a scoop of frozen custard will most likely be in my hand at any given time. There are several other trucks that come here that I enjoy as well. The variety, convenience, and entertainment is what constantly keeps me coming back. If you're in the Contra Costa are and are looking for good eats and good times, you should definitely check the Pleasant Hill Off the Grid out. read more

Ample amounts of free parking: sweet. Variety of tasty food trucks to choose from: awesome. Dogs everywhere that you can play with: hot diggity dog! You really can't go wrong with that triple whammy. Convenient hours from 5-9pm, so of you don't feel like cooking after a long day at work, you can get your grub on right here! For those who like to unwind with booze, they've got an alcohol truck with a variety of wines and beers to choose from. I kid you not, it's a dream come true according to my alcoholic friends. I believe the trucks rotate so it's not the same every week, but don't expect the prices to change much. Typical food truck prices and portions, but hey, it's OK to indulge in these hipster dining experiences every once in a while. I had trouble choosing, but ended up with a Korean BBQ chicken rice bowl from Bombzies (great name huh?). Korean marinade that was flavorful with a little kick. It comes with a side of kimchi and cucumbers - I skipped the kimchi and doubled up on cucumbers. And of course, I followed this meal with doggy playtime...yes, I literally pet and played with every dog present. read more

Nice spot to just relax and eat. Food choices were decent and parking was good. Would go here again.

I bought foods from Gyro Stop & Street Steam Bunz. Those are 2 of my favorites. People there are nice too & friendly. read more

The food truck hype has finally made its way to Pleasant Hill! I have to say, the entire atmosphere and environment is DEFINITELY enjoyable. It almost always seems like a summer block party or family-friendly day in the park. It's the one day a week the neighborhood seems to gather on up and spend some time--and bucks--under the sun. I've had some pretty mediocre food experiences here, as you definitely should and need to look at the trucks' menus. What comes out isn't always as tasty as it sounds--and the price isn't always too nice. I've always been a big supporter of small businesses, but I'd still like my food to be good... Trucks tend to change every week and there are a couple that are consistently there. From sliders to falafels to curry to grilled cheese to garlic noodles, pick your food wisely. And the frozen custard from Lexie's seems to be the single dessert truck here on the weekly. Enjoyable environment, friendly townsfolk and vendors with live music and ample lawn seating surrounding Pleasant Hill City Hall's gorgeous lake/water/pond/whatever it is, it's a fun environment to meet people up and share a beer or wine from the crafty stand set up, though choose your food wisely. read more

Great place to go on Wednesday Night after work during the summertime! Each week most of the food trucks rotate so your not always eating the same thing every week. Guess what? They serve beer and wine too! Good selection of beers but the wine...not the best (you'll get a headache after 1 glass) By the way, i would say my favorite truck would be the Labsta Truck and their Lobster Roll...sooooo delish! read more

Review of Cousins Maine Lobster Truck: I've been to larger Off-The-Grid spots but this one is a pretty decent size. Plenty of parking, a good amount of stalls and generally, live music. Otherwise they have a decent sound system. This time I tried Cousins Maine Lobster. Let me be honest with you, I tried it because I saw the food truck on ABC's Shark Tank where their food impressed so much, they nabbed a shark! I tried two rolls- their Maine Lobster roll, served chill with mayo- and their Connecticut roll, served hot with butter. I was definitely expecting to like the Connecticut roll butter bc it was hot but I liked the cold roll! They serve a really good amount of lobster. But they should- it's $15 each! I was pretty hungry and was able to eat both and was stuffed. However, if I only ordered one roll, I would've needed another side to keep me full. Now, this is super pricey for a food truck but that seems to be the trend these days. For me, it's worth it bc I love lobster and I haven't found a restaurant around that serves yummy lobster rolls. Other popular items I saw others order: lobster tacos- you get 3- and lobster loaded tots. read more

Off the Grid Pleasant Hill - Food Trucks Near Me - Pleasant Hill, California

Out of all the locations I have attended this is my favorite location. I love how it's open like a park and it has a lot of grass to sit down on with a picnic blanket or the hairs they provide. The ambience is casual with a lot of families and comfortable. It honestly feels like you're at a backyard party of the sorts! If you have the chance to check out the Pleasant Hill 5-9pm event just do it!! My husband and I usually just drop by when we are close and are never let down with the food trucks available! read more

Off The Grid has come to Pleasant Hill! Some friends and I attended their PHill soft launch tonight behind Crescent Plaza (the Ross parking lot is right there, you can't miss it), and it was a huge hit! Hundreds of patrons eating there or taking food home, courtesy of 9 fabulous trucks, complete with a truck dedicated to beer on tap. Dinner is served from 5 to 9 accompanied by live music and plenty of parking, you just might have to walk a block or two. Trucks present were: Lobsta Truck, United Bites, An The Go, Lexie's Frozen Custard, Curry Up Now, Streatery, Soul Food and a few others. I made a beeline for the Lobsta Truck to snag my much-coveted lobster roll - so tough to find on the west coast! A little small for $14 a pop, but the sandwich you do get is loaded with deliciously prepared well-seasoned lobster meat, on a proper New England style sandwich bun. Options are lobster mixed with hot drawn butter or seasoned mayo, I opted for mayo to keep it more traditional. Simple and delicious! I also snagged a bottle of their Maine Blueberry soda - amazing! I must find this stuff, it was so refreshing and flavorful! Round 2, cuz there's always a Round 2 with food trucks, was at United Bites, where I scored their Caribbean Jerk Chicken Tacos. Two tacos for $7 might just be the best deal at the whole gathering! I don't know if they were expecting such a huge turnout because many other food options were sold out and the wait for what they did have was considerable, probably around 20 minutes, but the employees were very apologetic and grateful for our patience. Truck employee Adam handed me my tacos with many thanks and apologies, asking us all to come back next week. I also scored a free soda with my Yelp check-in, woohoo! The tacos were well worth the wait luckily - generously seasoned grilled chicken, topped with a wonderful tangy slaw and a sprinkle of black sesame seeds, served in a flatbread-esque grilled tortilla. A home run! Friends tried the garlic noodles from An The Go (not a hit), the brisket sandwich from Streatery (a success!), and the true star of the night was my BF's brilliant discovery of Streatery's lemon ricotta donuts! Only $3 for a generous serving of delicious lemony donut holes, topped with a light and flavorful icing. You could see lemon zest in the dough - who knew a donut could be refreshing! Very happy to have Off The Grid now even closer to home, I look forward to being able to hit the food trucks on a weeknight! read more

Been to OTG PHill twice in the fall. Although the selection of food trucks is smaller than the bigger OTG events in Oakland and SF, I find the quality of the food trucks to be better. Plus it's less crowded and parking is pretty easy. Love that people bring their dogs, too. read more

Great sushi; fresh and tasty. The wait is too much but it worth it, for sure. No problem with parking feels convenient and it get flourished with great service zhey offer. Thank you Fuji Sushi read more

So I love out in Oakland and came out for a meetup event of food trucks and Harry Potter Wizards Unite. I did not know that this went on out here because well I love out in Oakland. The drive in sucked a little because rush hour sucks and just takes the soul out of everyone so I suggest make sure you have on some really good car jams for the drive. There were a lot of different options of food trucks which was great. They also have a love band playing and just the sun hitting you, music playing, sitting in the grass all together makes you feel oh so very good. I am thinking about making my way out there again on another Wednesday to enjoy a few hours of sitting on the grass in the sun and surrounded my food trucks again read more

Wow! Was in for a nice surprise when my co-worker invited me to the event to see "Sunny and the Black Pack" perform. There was grass !! Most off-the-grid I've been to is all concrete so sitting on grass was nice. Plus, omg, the music was great! And the buns from Street Steam Bunz was bomb.com ! Can't wait to go again. read more

good selection of food trucks. relaxing while eating makes for a very nice evening.

Great hangout idea! Lots of choices for food usually there's music and balloons for kids! Street steam bunz is my favorite food truck their food is amazing! Highly recommend! read more

Off the Grid recently launched in Pleasant Hill. Great excuse not to cook dinner on a Wednesday night. Nine trucks plus a beer trailer. Chairs laid out on the PH City Hall lawn and grassy spots to sit too. Lots of people young and old enjoying the food, community feel and live music. This will be a weekly event and I'm sure we'll be back. Trucks rotate. Tonight's trucks included Lexie's frozen custard, Bacon Bacon, Kinders, Sanguchon (Peruvian), United, Lobsta and others. I enjoyed United Bite's spicy jerk chicken tacos topped with apple slaw, the man child loved his bacon mac grilled cheese from Bacon Bacon...and a sundae of salted caramel on vanilla custard from LFC was a tasty topper. We got there on the early side around 6pm and thought the line for Bacon Bacon was long then...but it was twice as long when we left just after 7pm and they were already starting to run out of items. By the time my gf got there about 7:30...many of the trucks were starting to run out of the most popular items. The parking lot by Michaels was busy but we lucked into a great spot. Not a cheap night out, but a good time. I can't help but think that while it was good for us...I'm not convinced the local businesses will benefit. read more

Soooo this is my 3rd time here and I can't wait till next Wednesday to come back. Gyros are bomb, grilled chicken is bomb & the eggplant wraps are really filling! Beers not bad here either ;) After this we're going to the movies. Perfect spot for a date night or just fun with friends! Shoot really, this place would be rad single too! A great place to come together mix n mingle. read more

Love coming here with the kids great variety of food options and vibe one of my favorite trucks is street steam bunz they have the best bao's and ricebowls and turnt up tacos and tortas! Highly recommend this place for familys with kids and dogs very pet friendly as well! read more

I give them 4 stars for not having that many trucks out. However, I enjoyed the home-like feeling. I've been to the fort mason one, which was big and crowded. This one did not have huge lines and irritated people. I went during the World Series and everyone Sat at the lawn area watching the game on the projection screen. There was a free raffle as well. read more

Not quite as good as the one I went to in Concord, but I am happy to see Off The Grid expanding. I will admit, along with everyone else that the area in Pleasant Hill it was held at was much more of a serene location. You have a big grassy hill to sit atop and eat, chat and listen to live music. There were a few tables and chairs set up but it seems the majority of the people went for the much softer and cooler mother earth. To me the disappointment came with the trucks themselves. I for one, was very upset that Drewskies wasn't there. At least they weren't on the night that I went. The first truck I wasn't great, but were pretty good. It is called Go Streatery. I ordered a Beef Brisket sandwich and lemon/ricotta donuts. As to be expected, a bit of wait, but well worth it. The sandwich came on a bun, with great tasting beef and arugula. The brisket had so much flavor, and then combined with the seasoned arugula on top, it's a flavor explosion. The donuts are something out of this world. I was expecting A donut, and when they filled a small bag with them, I couldn't wipe the child like smile from my face. A blast of lemon, a hint of ricotta, all in a hot little pastry and covered with sugar. My inside fat kid was screaming with glee. The people actually working the truck, didn't seem to friendly. They were rush, rush, rush, which I understand, but hey, do it with a smile :D. So because only eating at one truck is just unacceptable, I went over to SAJJ. A Mediterranean food truck where one of their menu items was a Shawafel burrito. Yes ladies and gentlemen you heard me right. They combined Shawarma and Fallafel into one actual burrito. When I first saw it I was a little skeptical. If I want Mexican food, I'll get Mexican, if I want Mediterranean food, I'll get just that. I never thought of combining the two. They did it and what I recieved was a skinny but long burrito, grilled and filled with some good Mediterranean flavors. The Shawarma and Fallafel played with each over very nicely. Nothing really made me go "Oh my god this is the best Mediterranean food everrr." It was good. I've had better, and I've had way worse. Again though, SMILE... That is one thing this one lacked that the Concord one had. In Concord, they were having fun and you could tell. In Pleasant Hill, it felt like it was just business. read more

Finally Off the Grid Pleasant Hill! Weds 5-9 downtown. Pleasantly surprised. Plenty of free parking & they had plenty of lawn chairs & a city booth with complimentary shopping bags with a coupon book inside to support the city. Great touch! I will definitely be back but hope that there will be a better selection of trucks. We tried several & spent a small fortune but were not fully satisfied. Kenny's Heart & Soul, Lobsta Truck, AnGo were only okay for us. We'd pass on those. But Off the Grid itself is great. Music, laid back atmosphere is wonderful. read more

Ehhh...it's a nice enough atmosphere, I guess. But alllll of the food trucks are slllloooowwwww as fuuuuuuck!! RIDICULOUSLY sloooowwwww as fuck!!! These vendors need to plan accordingly!!! TERRIBLE!!!! read more

I've been here twice now. It's a very family friendly affair. There's live music and tons of families with small children picnicking. Bring a blanket or lawn chairs. There are lots of chairs that are provided by Off the Grid, But no guarantees of snagging any. The selection is good. My son stood in a line and came back with a bacon wrapped hot dog with a Siracha-wasabi aioli...my lobster roll was sad in comparison and twice the price. Not all trucks are created equal. So read the menus and take a look at what people are walking away with. Lobsta truck was over priced and underwhelming. The falafel/schwarma truck looked way better in hindsight. Or that hot dog. I've also tried the soul food truck. Horribly unhealthy, but good. read more

My favorite OTG so far. There's always at least 9+ trucks here, including dessert and the Lucky 13 beer/wine truck, plus live music, tons of chairs, and a huuuuuuge lawn to sprawl out on. read more

OTG is a treat. But like all the OTG.. bring money. I love tasting what is available. In Pleasant Hill location, parking can be tough. But the location is huge area for people to sit and enjoy. Trucks are different most of the time, but there are some main staples. read more

Normally go to the one in other locations. Awesome how they give % off when you use your Apple Pay in a different stand/food truck every week. Fun spot to relax & try new foods in, especially since many are restaurants so you try new things before going to the actual restaurant. read more

Happy Anniversary Lobster Roll. Not to bad but can't beat those Maine lobster dishes. Maybe next year.
